Chapter 1204: Chapter 1197: Weapon Development

Continuing, Nightingale went on, "I remember in ’The Three-Body’, the sophons that came to Earth to interfere with the humans’ study of physics were able to establish communication with the Trisolarans through quantum entanglement technology, and the synchronicity of the Yuanzi Group is somewhat akin to that quantum entanglement."

"Wow, you’ve even read ’The Three-Body’..." Hu Daoke couldn’t help but interrupt.

No sooner had he spoken than he was nudged by Cheng Ziang next to him, who shot him a glare and said irately, "Don’t ask nonsense, she’s explaining a theory here."

Nightingale paid no attention to their interaction but proceeded excitedly with gestures, "Let’s assume, just assume, we exchange the particles of Yuanzi Group A and Yuanzi Group B and separate them by a great distance. Due to the synchronicity of the Yuanzi Group, can we still establish a link? This is one of the uses of the synchronicity of the Yuanzi Group."

"But," Zhuyan Yu was the first to spot a loophole and raised doubts, "You just said that particles have uniqueness, and the exchanged particles from Yuanzi Group A and Yuanzi Group B will eventually return to their respective Yuanzi Groups. Wouldn’t the communication be interrupted then?"

"Good question," Nightingale said with a smile and a nod, confidently explaining, "The example I just gave might not have been the best, leading to your misunderstanding. As we mentioned before, Yin Particles are relatively stable and easily settled, so the correct approach in my previous example should be exchanging the Yin Particles between Yuanzi Group A and B, that is, swapping A-minus and B-minus. This way, the lively Yang Particles stay in their own Yuanzi Groups while the relatively stable Yin Particles settle into the opposite Yuanzi Group, enabling us to maintain the stable synchronization of both Yuanzi Groups."

"However, it still needs to be noted that, due to the uniqueness of particles, no matter how stable the Yin Particles are, they will eventually return to their own Yuanzi Group, causing the synchronization to fail. But if we artificially intervene in this process, it could take a very long time, at least long enough to serve as a communication tool."

"It seems that any new discovery in material microstudy could lead to breakthrough progress in fundamental sciences," Luo’er couldn’t help but exclaim.

"Does that mean we’ll be able to make phone calls in the Otherworld too?" Hu Daoke asked curiously.

"In principle, yes," Nightingale nodded and continued, "Traditional magic messengers still regard magical phenomena as a means of communication without fully understanding the nature of magic. If we can break through this restriction, then we will be able to create a global instant communication tool in the world of magic."

"Finally, we won’t have to rely on personal conscientiousness to wage wars..." Luo’er sighed, yet somehow felt a sense of loss.

"Besides the attributes mentioned above, are there other discoveries?" Zhuyan Yu asked eagerly.

"Of course, there are. Please allow me to explain them slowly," after a pause, Nightingale continued, "Next, I will introduce a new property of the Yuanzi Group, which is the particle chasing mechanism of the Yuanzi Group."

"As I’ve already mentioned, the particles of Yuanzi Group have uniqueness. So, let’s assume that if we somehow manage to split a Yuanzi Group, due to the relative liveliness of the Yang Particles, they will definitely start chasing the Yin Particles first, eventually combining and coiling to form a full Yuanzi Group. This means, if we keep splitting and releasing Yin Particles, Yang Particles will invariably follow and attempt to reconstitute into a complete Yuanzi Group."

"The particle chasing mechanism is essentially an extension of uniqueness, but this principle could be applied to a mode of transportation..."

"Airboat?" Baiyue was the first to catch on, asking tentatively.

"Exactly, an airboat, Ronisca’s airboat," Nightingale confirmed without being annoyed by the interruption and elaborated, "Let’s assume there is an engine that operates internally to split the Yuanzi Group and then ejects the stable Yin Particles from the exhaust. Consequently, lively Yang Particles will inevitably chase them, and the extensive chasing by the Yang Particles will generate kinetic energy, moving atmospheric molecules and resulting in a reactive force that propels the airboat forward."

"Though Ronisca’s airboat has already been fitted with the most advanced Wind Sect magic engine, this engine is fundamentally still a form of magic and not a breakthrough engine. The force it generates is only slightly higher than that of a traditional propeller. It’s like switching a two-meter-long spear with a three-meter one. No matter how long the spear gets, it can’t transform into a musket, nor can it have the range of a musket," Nightingale said.

"One would think that if this discovery could make a breakthrough, the High-peak people of Ronisca would be over the moon," said Cheng Ziang, shaking his head.

"They’ve known about it for some time," replied Wang Xu with a shrug, "some of the High-peak people came to Lipei a few days ago, hoping to collaborate on the study of this innovative engine. They plan to equip the second ship of the Helrandum-class with this type of engine and test the thrust of the new-style engine."

"The High-peak people are famously enthusiastic about flying; as soon as there is a new technology they want to install it on an Airboat," Luo’er said, shaking his head, "In earlier years, they crashed three of their four Azure Dragon-class Experimental Battleships and didn’t seem to regret it at all."

"Without that passion that surpasses life itself, how could they have created the Nightingale air and space force that is unique in the Otherworld?" Wang Xu shrugged his shoulders as he spoke.

"Are there any other discoveries?" Zhuyan Yu continued to inquire.

"Of course, there’s one last characteristic that has been discovered, which is also the most intriguing, and that is the collision properties of the Odd Origin Particle Group," said Nightingale, becoming visibly excited.

"The collision property of the Odd Origin Particle Group comes from such a hypothesis. Now we have three Yuanzi Groups A, B, and C. If we transplant the Yang particle B+ from the Yuanzi Group B into the Yuanzi Group A, and transplant the Yin Particle B- into the Yuanzi Group C. In this way, the three Yuanzi Groups would transform into two Odd Origin Particle Groups."

"In fact, even Odd Origin Particle Groups can operate in entanglement, they are just less stable compared to the even Yuanzi Groups. However, due to the uniqueness and chasing property mentioned before, what would happen to these two Odd Origin Particle Groups?"

"The Yuanzi Group A, which has been implanted with the Yang particle B+, would actively pursue the Yuanzi Group C, which has been implanted with the Yin Particle B-, eventually forming three even Yuanzi Groups," Baiyue ventured an answer.

"Correct," Nightingale seemed even more excited, "If it were merely the particles chasing and entangling, the energy produced would actually be quite small. But if two Yuanzi Groups collided at high speed due to the implanted Yin and Yang particles, the resulting power would increase geometrically. Yuanzi Group A, because of the internal implant of the Yang particle, would collide with Yuanzi Group C and burst forth a tremendous amount of energy. This is the collision property of the Odd Origin Particle Group. Eventually, after the two Odd Origin Particle Groups collide and release energy, they would revert to three even Yuanzi Groups, which are Yuanzi Groups A, B, and C."

"Whenever research involves the release of energy, such studies are highly likely to be first applied in the military field," Cheng Ziang muttered to Hu Daoke in a lowered voice, noticing Nightingale’s excitement.

"Such as?" asked Hu Daoke, his eyes wide with interest.

"For instance..." Cheng Ziang shrugged, unsure of how to express it, then made an exploding gesture with his hands, "you know, boom... get it?"

"Got it!" Hu Daoke understood from the crude gesture.

Luo, who had overheard the conversation, asked with some unease, "So, based on these properties, what could be developed?"

"Let’s assume a scenario where we have a gun that can utilize the energy produced by splitting a Yuanzi Group to project the Yin Particle B- of Yuanzi Group B and implant the remaining Yang particle B+ into the Yuanzi Group C inside the gun; thus, we would have a powerful weapon at our disposal."

"At this moment, a hundred meters away from the gun, there is a Yuanzi Group A designated as a target. The Yin Particle B- fired from the barrel hits it. The next second, due to the particles’ uniqueness and chasing property, the Odd Origin Particle Group C in the barrel would shoot out at high speed and directly strike the Odd Origin Particle Group A, acting as the target, resulting in a violent explosion..."
